Interested in participating in a Crawford Central School District/ Allegheny College collaboration and earning 2 credits?

Have you taken or are you currently in a 200-level or above language class at Allegheny?

If you answered “yes” to both of these questions, you’re a great candidate for the World Language Program — an internship that sends Allegheny students into local fifth-grade classes to provide an introduction to foreign language and global culture.

World Language interns give one lesson per week and are supported by classroom teachers in the schools; at the end of the semester, you will have a portfolio that documents your teaching experience and lesson plans — plus 2 credits!

This Wednesday, November 8, the Spanish house will be showing the award winning Cuban film Conducta! The film is centered around a young Cuban student who is trying to support his mother and grow in a community that has given up on him, well, everyone except his teacher. The film showcases life for many young Cubans and reflects the daily struggles that la juventud can face on the island. There will be a post film discussion, and PIZZA & REFRESHEMENTS of COURSE!

Details of this event have changed and it has been relocated to Montgomery Gym. The revised text follows:
